We use playlists in a number of different ways: as soundtrack to our interviews, or as a place where we collect videos for polls, or just to keep our youtube findings in mind. In any case, we hope they are helpful and entertaining to you.

The Ska Music Yearbook available now for 2.99€, (plus taxes, differing from country to country).

Huge thanks to Peteonthebeat, Charles Benoit and Mochammad Yasser for their interviews and texts and other contributions.
